Full house at business park after manufacturer takes on more space

CPP has announced the tenancy agreement for steel manufacturer Purple Fabrications at the Mitchells Enterprise Park in Wombwell, securing a full house of tenants for the Barnsley estate.

Founded in February 2020, Purple Fabrications has committed to a third 1,048 sq ft unit at this enterprise park following a period of sudden growth.

It specialises in all aspects of steelwork, including balcony bases, balustrades, parapet brackets, hand and wall rails, structural, machine support frames, hoppers, conveyers and made to measure mezzanine flooring.

CPP says the latest tenancy deal follows a surge in popularity of small units in the South Yorkshire area, leaving it with very little availability of units in the region.

Ed Norris, director at CPP, said: “It is fantastic to see new and start-up businesses adapting and changing to the current market conditions.

“Small warehouse units such as those offered at Mitchells Enterprise Park offer businesses great flexibility, as demonstrated by Purple Fabrications, which is great news for them – and for our local economy.

“As a result, however, they are in high demand, with little if any stock currently available.”

 Gary Edwards, managing director at Purple Fabrications, said: “The units at Wombwell have given our business a great base and the ability to grow at the location as our business expands.  

 “We are excited about our future and ongoing success at Mitchells Park Estate.”
